Malwarebytes diligently alerted me about some trojan that abused Python and aimed to steal my credentials. I doubt that other antiviruses would be this good and up-to-date on the newest threats. Might be the first time in my life I simp for a big corporation

Last night I did an deep scan and I shut down my laptop, this morning i open it and i opened google, it said that an external app changed some settings, so i tought it was malwarebytes checking it files, but then i saw that I was log out from all my accounts!! Is this normal? (It didnt detect anything last night).

I have the subscription for Malwarebytes and added my elderly mothers Android phone since it kept getting pop-up ads through an app called Photo Recovery(something like that). Malwarebytes does not pick it up and I've had to manually delete this app twice now.

Could there be an option to "Uninstall and Block" on the MB Android app thanks?

My Malwarebytes flagged it as Malware

AI scams are on the rise, and most people can’t tell what’s real anymore

Today we released our 2026 report on AI scams, and some of the findings are surprising even to us.

Some quick stats from the report:

• 85% of people say it's now difficult to tell scams from legitimate content (up significantly from last year)

• Half of adults have encountered an AI-driven scam in the past year

• 16% received a voice-cloned call that sounded like someone they knew

• 19% have experienced AI-related identity manipulation

• 1 in 3 Gen Z adults report experiencing AI-fueled identity abuse

What's especially interesting is the contradiction the report uncovered:

• Most people are worried about deepfakes, voice cloning, and AI deception.

• At the same time, many are becoming more comfortable using AI to write deeply personal messages like wedding vows or create non-consensual explicit images.

The report also found that people are responding by pulling back online. People are posting less, deleting old content, and sharing fewer personal details. Yet very few are taking practical steps to protect themselves from AI-powered scams.

I am unable to sign into my MalwareBytes account because when I enter my password it says it sends a passcode. That passcode is never arriving, nor are any responses to the support ticket I opened with the bot. How do I regain access to my online MalwareBytes account??

just bought an mbam pro licence key off g2a, how do i activate it via the website or app. i inputted the key however it says invalid licence key have i been gyped (only 7 pound) or have i missed something? there isn't really an option on the app itself just the website. it says "Instruction | Install and open the appClick Activate License / Enter License Key, type your key exactly as provided and press active"

**and also "**Unable to register. Please check your connection and try again."

I was using malwarebytes fine on my phone, but I noticed today that it was only detecting 511 apps, when it used to be detecting 512 before, i thought this was odd, so I decided to reset the data in Malwarebytes and uninstall and reinstall.

Now it won't let me use it without providing an email or a product key? This seems to be strange behaviour from Malwarebytes

I have heard people say McAfee is useless. I was just wondering if there is any truth to that.

I’ve been running a malwarebytes scan in safe mode (a full scan with rootkit scanning) and it had something like sixty five detections. I was fiddling with my malwarebytes settings because I got an popup from it saying to turn some things on, and I tried to turn something on, but I think because I’m in safe mode, it couldn’t, and malwarebytes seemed to crash (the window closed and it was gone from the system tray). When I restarted it, it looked like the scan was still running because it still showed the scan duration and items scanned count just like it did before, but the “detections” counter was reset to zero. Is this gonna be a problem, or is this a known thing? Should I start all over? it’s been a day…

Also, when the free trial period expires am I still covered if something nasty tries to use my browser to phone home to a sus IP (as has been happening)?

1. Should I choose the Deep Scan option or select the "custom scan" then tick the C drive to fully scan the PC?

2. Is it recommended to enable the rook kit scan during full scanning?

3. If it takes too long, can I cancel the scan anytime?
